The Age of Linen Paper.

According to Wehrs, the oldest
known specimen of linen paper extant
is a document written A. d. 1908.
This was probably made as early as
1900. Indeed. many leading historical
writers concur in that date. Wehrs
supposes that. in making paper. linen
rags were either by accident or through
design, at first mixed with cotton rags,
so as to produce a paper which was
partly linen and partly cotton, and
that this led by degrees to the manu-
facture of paper from linen only. He
also claims the honor for Germany.
But Schonemann gives that distinction
TO Italy. because there. in the district
of Ancona a considerable manufacture
of cotton paper was carried on before
the fourteenth century.-Inland

FLOWERS FOR PERFUMES.
How Roses Are Grown and Gathered for
COMMERCIAL Purposes.


One essential principle in perfume
culture is that all fancy and 'im-
proved" varieties of flowers are dis
carded, and the natural, simple, old
fashioned kind are exclusively grown.
The roses grown are the common pink
ones The single wild violet is pre-
terred to all the larger artiticially de-
veoped varieties, and not a double
tuberOse is to be seen on any farm.
Only the white jasmine is used. the yell
low and less fragant variety being
either discarded or unknown. The
jasmine plants are set in rows about ten
inches apart, and are closely pruned
every year. Roses are grown on the
lower terraces, and are likewise cut low
and the ground between the trees
heavily MANFRED. After the roses
have been gathered the stem is cut to
within few inches of the ground. so
as TO conserve for the next season the
entire vigor of the plant During the
harvest season traders or middlemen

wagons collecting flowers from the
farms, for which they pay prices vary
ing according to the extent Of the crop
and the demands of the market Their
fragrant load is hurried to the nearest
manufacturer and delivered while the
flowers are still fresh and crisp. 1t is
necessary that the flowers should be
gathered in the morning as soon as
possible after the dews of the preced-
ing night have disappeared. In many
cases laboratories are erected on the
flower farm itself, and if the farm is OF
sufficient size this adds very much to
the profits. Chambers Journal.

why the Crow Is Black.

The Indians Of the extreme northwest
had some very remarkable legends about
the creation, in which the crow takes the
leading part, bringing order out of chaos.
Perhaps the most curious was that which
accounted for the raven coat of the crow.
One night, while making a tour through
his dominions, he stopped at the house
of Can-nook, a chief, and begged for
lodging and a drink of water. Can-nook
offered him q bed, but, on account of the
scarcity Of water, refused to give him
anything TO drink. When all the rest
were asleep the crow got up to hunt for
the water butt, but was heard by Can
hooks wife, who aroused her husband.
He, thinking that the crow was about to
escape, piled logs of gum wood upon the
fire. The crow made desperate efforts to
fly through the hole in the roof wher.
the smoke escaped, but Can-nook causet.

a cousin settled on the Teche in Louis

"Come with me now, Andrel" she

He went. Two years after this the
young Countess married the gardeners

Utilizing Ills Youngsters.

A farmer uamed August Pirch, who
lives near Garvanzo, is the happy
possessor of dozen fine, healthy
children. These youngsters grow fast,
eat three or four hearty meals day,
and the way they wear out clothes is
enough to make a wooden factory think a
cyclone had struck it. Mr. Pirch has
been in hot water with his little fishes
for years, and was about to give up in
despair, when bright idea struck him.
He had tract of land that could not be
used for the want of water. But how to
irrigate the land without spending a
large sum of money was a mystery. A
ditch would cost thousands Of dollars,
but corner lots have not been so plentiful
in the Pirch family as the happy father
could have wished, and his handbook
simply showed a balance of few
hundreds instead of thousands. lie

that he could stand a siXty-foot well a
cheap pump and one of those great big
family swings which are noticed NJ

grounds. The well was bored the pump
was set up, and the swing was put in
working order
Here, you little rascals," said the
elder Pirch to his little fishes, "come
out here and get in this swing Pm 90

In five minutes the children were fiying
back and forth through the air. The

the well, and is connected by an iron rod
which works the pump as the swing

Butter and Rntterine.

1t is not little funny to walk through
our makets nowadays and note the re-
suit of the oleomargarine law. You
shall find a score of stands selling oleo-
margarine and butterine, but hardly a
single one where butter is offered. There
are many tempting signs, such as Pure
Creamery Butter" or "Choice Western
Reserve Butter" but underneath either,
if you look closely, will be found, in
much smaller type, the additional legend:
"Now known as oleomargarine or but
terine" Little frauds are still per-
petrated. There is one girl, for exam
pie, who has been selling "pure country
butter" for six months-selling it in
market on market days, and between
times selling it in person at houses on
both sides of the river. Her boxes and
pals are legally stamped, if you look
closely, but her language is free. Every
ounce of her wares is butterine. The
genuine butter trade has almost dis
appeared from the markets and gone to
the fancy groceries. There the price is
from 40 to so cents, and it is not by any
means certain that you do not buy half
oleomargarine or butterine even then

CAPRICE

A summer night with perfumed breath
Told love tales to the listening trees,
And hedge-rov buds, in guise Of death,
Lay dreaming of the lips Of bees,
While wheeling, circling, faint and far,
A FREELY showed its shimmering spark,
And, like an evanescent star,
Painted its life along the dark
And l, who wandered in the lane,
Grew envious of a thing so free,
And sighed and gazed and sighed again,
And cried; "Kind Heaven, give to me
The fire-hy's liberty"
My love came tripping down the lane;
The boughs bent low to touch her head;
The clover never felt the pain
OF death beneath so light tread;
And ere knew, the fire-hy's wings
We're tangled in her FURNISHED hair,
The tremulous, fair glimmerings
Illumining face more fair.
Then l, who felt my heart beat wild
The love-light in her eyes to see,
Became capricious as a child,
And prayed: "Sweet Heaven, grant to me
A like captivity"
Francis Holoard Williams, IN Current.
